Community Programs

Overview

Community programs make residents more aware of safety issues in their homes and neighborhoods and help students understand the dangers posed by drug and alcohol abuse. Through community programs, police officers work closely with residents to establish trusting relationships that are vital to creating and maintaining a safe community. The following are just a few of the programs that keep the Hollywood Police Department and our community connected.
